About REIT Live

REIT Live is a real estate industry event expected to take place January 13, 2027 at Tour & Taxis in Brussels, Belgium. It is a one-day event on a Wednesday. With about 13 weeks to go, exhibitors still have time to order booth services and book hotels at reasonable rates.

Shows like this one typically draw developers, investors, brokers, property managers, city officials and real estate service providers. We have not been able to confirm an official website for this show yet, so contact the organizer before making any plans.

What to expect at REIT Live

Real estate events focus on deals and relationships. Expect investor meetings, city and project pavilions, and networking events that matter as much as the exhibit floor.

With a single day on the floor, every hour counts: arrive early, keep breaks short and in shifts so the booth is never empty, and book any important meetings before the doors open. Expect most visitors to be developers and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

How exhibitors should prepare for REIT Live

Here is a working timeline counted back from the opening day, January 13, 2027 (expected date, so adjust once it is confirmed):

1. 16 weeks before (Sep 23, 2026) · date passed, do it now if you haven't
   Confirm your booth space and read the exhibitor manual. Book hotels near Tour & Taxis while rates are still normal.
2. 8 weeks before (Nov 18, 2026)
   Order booth services (power, internet, furniture, cleaning) before the early-rate deadlines, and send graphics to print.
3. 4 weeks before (Dec 16, 2026)
   Ship freight to the advance warehouse if the organizer offers one. Book meetings with the visitors you most want to see. Set up lead capture and train the team on it.
4. One week before (Jan 6, 2027)
   Confirm freight arrived, share the staffing schedule, charge every device, and test your lead capture app with Wi-Fi turned off.

Preparation tips for real estate shows

• Prepare project summaries with key numbers.
• Book meetings with investors and partners in advance.
• Plan your evening networking schedule as carefully as the booth.

Booth tips for REIT Live

• Show projects visually with maps, renderings and key figures.
• Ask about investment criteria or project needs.
• Keep a seated area for confidential conversations.
• Walk the hall at Tour & Taxis during move-in to see which entrances and aisles carry the most traffic, and set up your booth so it faces that flow.
• Give every person on the booth a clear role (greeting, demos, qualifying) so nobody waits for someone else to start a conversation.
• If you expect local buyers in Belgium, bring key material in the local language as well as English, and have prices ready in the local currency.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.
